Want To Lease Bass Lakes:I am in need of 3 large lakes that are currently holding good Bass to manage and develop into an excellent Bass fishing property. Most of you that know me realize that I have been spending years taking customers to Mexico. I have a great customer base of about 25 older fisherman like myself that would like to have a few great private lakes to fish here in Texas. We are just getting to old to make those two day drives to Mexico. I am looking for lakes that can produce from 3 to 7 lb. Bass to date. I will manage these lakes into even better fisheries with a few years of tinder loving care.

Lease Agreement:I would expect to be on you property at least once a month with customers. I fish with no more that two fisherman in my boat on any given day. I will always be there with my customers to see that all rules are followed and all gates into the property are closed/locked.- You can expect at least $300 to $600 per fishing day; if you had rather lease by the day.- You can expect a yearly lease of $2,000 to $10,000 depending on the quality of Bass in your lake.- You can expect me to spend from $5,000 to $10,000 yearly on the feeding and management program.- I would expect to have the exclusive to the lakes that I am spending money to develop on a long term lease.- In return you will have a great fishery when I leave the lease.Contact Information:Donald Harper - 432-553-1874Email: fishnteacher@gmail.com$200 finders fee is available for any contact that develops into a lease.

Thanks for all the PM's and Emails with questions and the help you are offering.

Two main concern that I would like to share:Why three leases?I want 3 leases to basically rest the fish. Fishing often on one lease is not productive to the catch ratio that we would like to have. Bass just become accustom to you being there and shut down. I would like to be on your lease no more than once a month. Having 3 leases that are far apart will also be helpful in many ways. Weather conditions is the main reason for having these leases spread out in different regions of the state. Water levels and water clarity is also very important to catching big fish.

How many people will be coming and going on our property?Your privacy and care for the property is my main concern. I own a large farm in Tennessee and understand very well your concerns with people being on your ranch. My concern for the livestock, securing gates and leaving the land in better shape than I found it will always be at the top of my list. I am not the general public. I will always be there with my customer to make sure rules are followed.
